    I can live with that
    Just what I was thinking. As long as it actually happens.

      Still bitter about what? Abril not getting rightfully disqualified against Rios?

      Abril had like 200 clinches in that fight. A pure disgrace.

          The WBA is corrupt, so are the other sanctioning bodies.



          Rule #2. One of the most important rules that most refs don't follow.

            LOL..Yeah and Bob Arum is an honorable man. Excuses, excuses.

            There's ways to deal with fighters like Abril. Rios just didn't know how to.

            Abril is a very highly skilled technician that gives anybody at 135 hell.

                You didn't bother counting Rios' clinches did you? Or let me guess, he didn't clinch?

                    Wasn't Broner saying there was some beef there?


                    Let's see it.

                      Abril isn't much of a threat to Broner. I know people are high on him now but that's just because Showtime is hyping him up to be. you can't trust anything they say because the president is a former GBP lawyer, even Paulie is an active fighter under contract by GBP. it's call a conflict of interest and you have to question their integrity.

                      as to why Abril is made for Broner is simple.

                      Abril is a low volume mover. his jab isn't very accurate nor does he throw it with any authority. Broner would win most of the rounds by landing a few crowd pleasing punches.

                      Vazquez is far a superior boxer. I'm not saying Vazquez beats Broner but his movement and his jab would be a stylistic nightmare for Broner. plus Vazquez never gets tired. Broner would have a good chance at losing but he's good enough to win.


                      people just hate on Vazquez because they either think boxing is supposed to be like rock em sock robots or they understand Vazquez's technical ability but don't really appreciate that style of boxing.

                      HBO and Showtime down play the guy because Broner is money and if Vazquez should beat him they both lose a lot of money invested in Broner or possible future earnings
